We certify plumbing and drainage products to use the WaterMark® symbol to meet regulatory requirements. In addition, we also offer certification services to our own IAPMOMark® and GasMark® product certification schemes to Australian and International Standards. Complementing the certification schemes is the IAPMO Technology Laboratory, with capabilities in testing a range of gas and electrical appliances and gas components and some appliances in plumbing applications. IAPMO Oceania is “first in fast, professional” certification.
As a JASANZ accredited product certification body, we offer the following certification services:
Certification of plumbing and drainage products in accordance with the Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB). The 'WaterMark' logo is owned by The Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB) and the scheme is undertaken by the Plumbing Code of Australia (PCA).
Certification of specific product, generally water related. The products covered under the IAPMOMark are not necessarily subject to specific requirements of a central body. The Standards are selected by IAPMO Oceania following a formal review.
Certification of gas appliances and components in accordance with specifically recognised Standards and overseen by Australian and New Zealand gas regulators.
NATA accredited testing of a range of gas and electrical appliances, gas components and water appliances. Non-NATA accredited R&D testing can also be commissioned according to your development and prototype testing requirements.
